Around the clock

Eiko Onoda said...
We used to have a fixed holiday, once or twice a week usually on Saturday and Sunday, that were originated from religious worship. No one worked on fixed holidays.

Now we all work 7 days 24 hours, though we take a rest once or twice a week, but someone is working somewhere at any time.

Omnipresence of Capitalism made us lose the feeling of fixed role of each days -ie Monday is the beginning of the week, etc.
